Cancer Treatment, Auto-Immune Disorder

For months, I’ve been through many tests resulting in the diagnosis of aggressive breast cancer. The over-active immune system disorder I’ve been battling since 2016 complicates all aspects of cancer including increasing the risks and drastically reducing the options for conventional treatments. The coming months will be very challenging and therefore I’m retiring as I will not be able to provide the service you deserve.

I’m hoping to undergo immuno-therapy and some alternative treatments shown to have positive results in patients with auto-immune diseases since some traditional methods are not options for me. These programs work in conjunction with traditional protocols but are not covered by insurance so the treatment centers recommend a crowd-funding campaign to raise the initial funds to get started while trying to arrange other financing.

This GoFundMe page is to help cover the costs of the initial round of care, which is estimated at $ 20,000. One center quoted $ 68,000 for their full 7-week program and I’m sure some unforeseen medical or incidental expenses will come up as well. Every little bit from you or your sphere can help and will be greatly appreciated.

My best to everyone,

Rita
